Jan 11, 2017  How to use Siri Eyes-Free in your Ford; How to use Siri Eyes-Free in your Chrysler, Dodge, or Jeep; How to use Siri Eyes-Free in your Nissan; How to use Siri Eyes-Free in your Acura; In general, if you're considering purchasing a car and want to know whether it supports either Siri Eyes-Free or CarPlay, you're best off Googling 'Siri eyes-free. Dec 03, 2015  Ford and Lincoln owners can now enable Apple Siri Eyes Free for the first time, via a free software update. But unlike most automakers, Ford is extending the upgrade to older cars, including any.

Good news: Ford has figured a way to retroactively give Apple Siri Eyes-Free capabilities to five million Fords and Lincolns dating back to 2011 models. Eyes-Free is a way to communicate to Siri and thus to your iPhone via the car’s press-to-talk button. You can ask Siri just about anything so long as the back-and-forth is all spoken: your requests to Siri, Siri’s responses to you. Not much displays on Ford’s 8-inch color LCD (which continues showing whatever was on the display like the current music playing) and nothing at all shows on the phone because Eyes-Free it’s blanked out once Eyes-Free take over.

Along with current cars already set up for Eyes-Free, that means the majority of the 12 million Fords built with one of the three flavors of Sync can now use Eyes-Free. This update is for Ford Sync version 2, the one that is being superseded in 2015 and 2016 models. You’ll need to download a Sync update, either at home (via a USB key) or at the dealership, but check first to see if you’ll be charged, since this is not a bug fix. Sync 1 (2008-2011) is not updatable, and Sync 3 (some 2016 cars, virtually all 2017s) already has it.

How it works

When a smartphone shares the steering wheel push-to-talk button, a short touch summons the car’s voice recognition system. A long press alerts the phone the request is for the phone’s voice recognizer, in this case Siri Eyes-Free. Ford says, “Drivers can use just their voice to ask Siri for requests,” meaning “drivers can use only their voice,” because the phone display is blanked and Eyes-Free is not sophisticated enough, nor are the cars of the era ready, to display on the dash LCD anything gleaned from the phone.

  1. Dec 03, 2015  Today, however, some Ford owners may start to feel a little warm and fuzzy toward Sync. That's because Ford is rolling out a free upgrade that includes Apple's Siri Eyes-Free. For those not.
  2. If you get your hands on a copy let me know. One of the many Ford reps I talked to said it was an intentional move and mumbled something about Siri Eyes Free. I tried to explain I wasn't talking about eyes free and he then blamed it on Apple.
  3. Dec 03, 2015  Ford adds Apple's Siri to older vehicles with Sync Software upgrade provides Siri eyes-free capability to about 5 million customers of older Ford vehicles. Check out this story on Freep.com: https.

(This doesn’t stop the phone from displaying iPhone music or phonebook entries, since that’s done outside of Eyes-Free.)

Apple Siri Eyes Free

According to Ford, some of the things you can do via Eyes-Free are:

  • “Audibly” send and receive text messages. A text comes in, it’s read — spoken — to you. You want to send a text, you dictate what you want to see (so to speak) sent, then how close Siri comes to parsing your message, all without knowing if Siri is spelling it “to,” “too” or “2” or if “Gwen” once again parses as “Quinn.” It’s better than nothing.
  • Choose and play music. You could also do this via the existing dashboard-to-phone interface and see what you’ve chosen. Still, it’s kind of cool the first time say “Play the Boss” and Siri knows you mean Springsteen.
  • Ask about the weather here or at your destination if navigation is also running, or by naming another city.
  • Set an alarm or reminder.
  • Look up phone numbers for points of interest.
  • Make calls to phone book contacts.
  • Get directions through Apple maps. (Directions via Google Maps running on your iPhone? Fuggedaboutit.)

Makes you wish there’s a download for Sync 3

What Is Siri Eyes

According to Sherif Marakby, director of Ford Electronics and Electrical Systems Engineering, “SYNC, Ford’s entertainment and communications system, was designed to be flexible and updatable, just like other mobile technologies, so our customers are able to get the most out of their smartphones while behind the wheel.”

Using Siri Eyes Free

An owner who’s seen the wonders of Sync 3 — a seriously up-to-date and useful interface — might wish the “flexible and updatable” part of Sync extended to ditching Sync 2 and downloading Sync 3. That is not in the cards, because Sync 2 is tied to old hardware and the last-generation operating system from Microsoft, rather than BlackBerry’s QNX that powers Sync 3.
